Onyria Marinha Cascais, Vignette Collection and Kimpton Quinta da Marinha Cascais are both unique in their own right, with designs that draw inspiration from their picturesque surroundings. We believe that IHG’s brands align perfectly with our vision to retain their rich cultural heritage, whilst offering authentic, one-of-a-kind experiences.”

Launched in 2021, offers a compelling way for owners of one-of-a-kind hotels to benefit from IHG’s powerful enterprise offering and global scale. Over a period of three years alone, the brand has surpassed the halfway point in its decade-long target to attract 100 hotels by 2030.
Kimpton pioneered the concept of unique, distinctive, design-forward hotels in the United States. Founded in 1981 by visionary hotelier Bill Kimpton, the brand is inspired by his travels to Europe where Kimpton saw an opportunity for a hotel experience that was more than a place to stay, but rather a place to experience, feel a sense of belonging and explore. Kimpton Quinta da Marinha Cascais adds to IHG’s growing pipeline of eight Kimpton properties in Europe, including Kimpton Lisbon and Kimpton Sicily which were both signed last year.
